Invitation to Pluralist Public Philosophy

An Invitation to Chemical Process Philosophy

Process philosophy’—based on contributions of Alfred North Whitehead (1867-1947)—has resources that would be useful in philosophy of chemistry. This approach would particularly appropriate for dealing with questions involving time-dependent self-organization in far-from-equilibrium open systems. Such spontaneous generation of coherent dynamic structure is of central importance in many fields (i...

Performance philosophy and public philosophy are two recent attempts to solve that problem and radically transform professional academic philosophy into what I call real philosophy. Nevertheless, performance philosophy and public philosophy have some prima facie probl...

Invitation to operadic dynamics

Based on the Gerstenhaber Theory it is clarified how operadic dynamics may be introduced. Operadic observables satisfy the Gerstenhaber algebra identities and their time evolution is governed by the Gerstenhaber-Lax or Gerstenhaber-Heisenberg equation. In this way one can describe classical and quantum time evolution of operations. The notion of an operadic Lax pair is introduced as well.

An Invitation to Play

Such games provide only binary information indicating the winning player. However, in classical games theory [12] the emphasis is rather on how much we win or lose. Can we incorporate the information about the profits and losses into parity games?
